Our World Market Backyard-BBQ-Birthday-Bash!

(Ok, so I'm only ONE month older than him, but I always like to rub it in that I'm smarter than he is - cause I was born one WHOLE month before him, duh.)

Last night we had a little family celebratory birthday bash in his honor.

You might have seen my Instagram post the other day {where I spent 2 entire hours shopping} at one of my favorite places ever - World Market. Ok, please tell me you love that place like I do? I shop there on a pretty regular basis, and I ALWAYS find something new that I've never seen before

(and that I MUST HAVE)!

I seriously got SO MANY cute things for our little party. I couldn't decide what to get (which is probably why I spent over 2 hours in there) because I wanted it ALL!

They had the cutest Candle Holders there...and OMG I was seriously DYING over the Pineapple Candles. They smell like heaven in a candle. I might have made EVERY person at Ty's party smell them! :)

The fun umbrella straws were a HIT - everyone kept saying they made their drinks (the Blood Orange Soda is delish too) feel fruitier! :)

I HAVE to mention the rug I got there - because I'm obsessed with it - and it was only $20. I mean, really?! How great is that!? I think the decor totally made the party more fun!

I'm loving the Yellow Ikat Lights too - they added such a fun touch! And at night..they made my patio feel like a little Oasis in the City!

Ty's "trick sparkler candles" didn't really work (boo hoo)--he blew it out like a champ!My Mom makes the most amazing cupcakes ever!!We played games, ate & really made lots of memories (as cheesy as that is).

D had SO MUCH FUN splashing in the pool with Grandpa!

We stripped him down later, but then he wanted nothing to do with it. Kids. ;)

I am exactly one month older and wiser than my hubs too. He likes to joke that he's more youthful and I'm an old lady (which I'm sure I'll appreciate less when I'm 30/40+). Everything was way cute but not too girly. I struggle with that so I'm taking notes.

Yes, I am obsessed with that place, too! I click through their website probably on a weekly basis. I love the whole Bali collection they had. sigh...If only I were rich! And I LOVE that blood orange soda, too. :)Super cute party!
